Noises Off

Description: 

The quest "Noises Off" (TR_m1_PT_NoisesOff) in Port Telvannis starts as soon as you hear the latest rumor. I believe this is not up to TR standard, the quest list should only get populated once you actively click on a quest topic (or somesuch).

From what I can tell the only

Boyos's picture

From what I can tell the only way to connect the two NPCs together is with that latest rumors entry. I moved the Journal update and the same general information to the "cacophony" topic for the quest. I left the latest rumors entry but removed the Journal update. I also removed several %PCName references from the cacophony dialogue because why would random NPCs know the player's name?

It's still kind of an annoying quest since you have to go around asking random NPCs till you get the journal update, but this fixes the latest rumors entry forcing the quest on you.
